Which term best describes the pointline or curve defined by the intersection of a cone and a plane?
The term that best describes the curve formed by the intersection of a cone and a plane is a "conic section." Depending on the angle and position of the plane relative to the cone, the conic section can be classified as a circle, ellipse, parabola, or hyperbola. Each of these shapes represents a different type of intersection based on the geometric relationship between the cone and the plane.
